Well, I love my cycling clothes. It's getting easier to find clothing for petite women, but still, a lot of jerseys I see don't come in x small. That's why almost all of my clothes are Terry or Shebeest.
What I don't like: elastic on the bottom. Again, another reason why I don't have other brands except Terry or Shebeest.
I can't wear men's jerseys. Maybe a boys' jersey?
I have had no problems with gloves. I found out that my hands are small, but not teeny. I wear a woman's small or medium glove.
I have 3 rain jackets, one cheap from REI, a medium priced one from Performance, with a hood and pit zips, and an expensive Gore jacket with pit zips and they all are sweaty, but keep the rain out. If I open the pit zips (the cheap jacket doesn't have them) it works. I would rather be dry than cool.
